The current method to find the system id of a model object (list, module, line item, etc) is to pull the entire list down with a get call and then loop through that response checking each member for the name/code/id that you are looking for.
I would like to see a new endpoint in which we can pass a name or code and get the name, id and code(where applicable) back: For example:
"name": "CreditView.txt"
}
Response would look something like:
{
"id": "113000000022",
"name": "CreditView.txt"
}
Alternately, alter the existing GET call to be able include a filter.
Response would look the same, something like:
{
"id": "113000000022",
"name": "CreditView.txt"
}
